52. Chapter 52
The southern war camp is close to mountains and rivers, and the environment is really good. Zhou Qingqing stayed in the camp for half a month, but she didn't feel depressed, the shock brought to her by Feng Xiao was a spy in Northern Zhao had gradually disappeared, and the only thing she was worried about was the situation of her younger brother Zhou Xun in Northern Zhao. According to the news reported by the front line, Northern Zhao and Southern Zhou were joining forces to march towards Western Qin with 100,000 troops. The army is pressing, the atmosphere in the camp is tense, Qin Zhen and Qin Luo brothers and sisters have been busy arranging troops, Zhou Qingqing doesn't know much about the art of war, he feels bored, and he can't reveal his identity, so he often has fun alone nearby.
There is a deep pool nearby, the pool is dark green and bottomless, but there are schools of fish in the water, Qin Zhen knows that she often runs there, but because the weather is getting colder, she can't go to the water, and she always returns empty-handed, so she made a pair of fishing rods for her. He went to discuss the war, and Zhou Qingqing took a bamboo pole to fish in the deep pool, but his skills were not good and he gained little.
On this day, she was fishing, and saw the fishing rod shaking, as if a big fish had been hooked, and was about to close the rod, when suddenly a footstep sound came, and the fishing line shook, and the big fish that was already about to be hooked fled when he heard the sound.
Zhou Qingqing turned his head to see that it was Qin Zhen, and stomped his feet: "I finally caught a big fish, and you were scared away." ”
Qin Zhen smiled: "I'll compensate you." ”
So saying, he came over and sat down next to her, put away the rod, hung up the bait, and threw the hook into the water. Zhou Qingqing waited quietly, after a while, the water ripples fluctuated, Zhou Qingqing was nervous to make a sound, Qin Zhen put his finger to his lips and made a silent gesture, and then waited for a while, and put away the fishing rod violently, and there was a two-foot-long big fish hanging on the hook.
The fish was thrown to the grass, still alive, Zhou Qingqing hurriedly grabbed it, and then said to Qin Zhen: "Why are you so powerful?" The fish in this pool are all like they have become fine, and I haven't seen a few hooks after fishing for a few days, and you have caught such a big one as soon as you come. ”
Qin Zhen smiled: "It's just luck." He watched her happily grab the big fish and thread it with a straw rope, and asked tentatively, "Are you still angry with me?" ”
Zhou Qingqing was stunned, and looked up at him with some puzzlement: "What am I doing when I'm angry with you?" ”
"Let you suffer injustice, you almost lost your life in prison, and now you have to hide your identity."
Zhou Qingqing was silent for a moment, was she angry? According to the identity of the two, she has no position to be angry. But she is a person, an ordinary woman, even if she can't help herself, but Qin Zhen is her husband after all, when she heard that Nie Jin betrayed Xi Qin and was taken into prison by a group of soldiers, she really thought that he would save her, of course, he also saved her in the end. It's just that in those days in the prison, when she was in despair, he didn't even come to see her. Even if she knew that he might have no choice, but if she said that she was not disappointed in her heart, she couldn't lie to herself.
She thought for a moment, looked at the fish that was still alive and kicking up by herself, and smiled: "The prince has a special identity, I understand you." With that, he smiled and walked back, "You can have a good meal tonight." ”
Qin Zhen put away the fishing rod and followed behind her: "I don't want you to understand, I just want to know if you are disappointed in me?" ”
Zhou Qingqing stopped and turned his head to look at him: "Does the prince want to listen to the truth?" Then I sue you, I am indeed disappointed. ”
Qin Zhen was stunned for a moment, suddenly smiled, and stepped forward to hug her: "If you say that, I'm relieved!" ”
Zhou Qingqing looked at him puzzled, what was the matter with this person? said that he was disappointed in him, and he was still very happy.
Qin Zhen raised his eyebrows and smiled: "There are expectations before you are disappointed, which shows that you regard me as your husband, not a prince with a clear position." ”
Zhou Qingqing frowned and glanced at him.
I just heard him continue: "If you just treat me as a prince who is forced to marry into a marriage, you will not have expectations of me, because it is only the relationship between Qin and Zhou that maintains the relationship between us, and I know now that in your heart, you don't think so." ”
Zhou Qingqing looked at his smiling face, was silent for a while, and asked for a while: "What about the prince?" What does the prince think? ”
Qin Zhen looked at her steadily: "I was born in the royal family, and I am in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops in Western Qin, and the life and death of Western Qin are closely related to me. I have my position and way of doing things, but I am also a person, a man with seven emotions and six desires, even if I die myself, I will never let the woman I love die in vain. ”
His tone was serious, his eyes were burning, and his eyes were as black as ink, as if he had seen into Zhou Qingqing's heart. She never thought that this man would say such a thing.
Seeing that she was silent, Qin Zhen simply grabbed her shoulders and continued: "Qingqing, I regard you as my wife, and I have nothing to do with relatives. No matter what the relationship between Qin and Zhou is in the future, you are my wife. No matter what happens, you have to trust me, I will never give up on you. ”
Zhou Qingqing looked away from him uncomfortably, and said, "I believe you are." ”
Qin Zhen laughed out loud and took the fish jumping in her hand: "Okay, I'll show you a hand at night." ”
Zhou Qingqing glanced at him uncertainly: "Do you know how to cook?" ”
Qin Zhen touched his nose in disdain: "What's so difficult about this!" ”
Zhou Qingqing will be skeptical.
When he returned to the camp, he felt that something was wrong when he saw his knife technique of cutting fish, where was killing fish, it was simply killing, so he quickly drove him away and attracted the chef Nie Jin.
When a pot of stewed fish was fragrant, it attracted Qin Luo. She looked at the steaming fish pot and said with a smile: "It turns out that Nie Guard still has this hand." ”
Zhou Qingqing smiled: "When I was in Xijing, those people in the palace ate the dishes made by Ah Jin, and they were full of praise. ”
Qin Zhen laughed: "No wonder when I left the palace for two months and came back, the people of the entire palace changed the direction of the wind, and they dared to be impressed by Nie Jin's craftsmanship." ”
Qin Luo picked up a piece of fish meat and threw it into his mouth, although he was so hot that he gasped, he still stretched out his thumb: "It's delicious!" When I return to Xijing this time, sister-in-law, how about you lend Nie Jin to me for a few days every month? ”
Zhou Qingqing looked at Nie Jin, who was expressionless: "This is the need to ask Ah Jin if he is willing?" ”
Qin Luo turned his head with a smile and asked Nie Jin, "Nie Guard, are you willing?" The environment in my house is no worse than that of the third brother, and the maid is a race and a water spirit, if Nie Guard's fancy one, I will reward you. ”
Nie Jin twitched the corner of his mouth: "The princess said she laughed." ”
Qin Luo said: "I'm serious. I see that Nie Huwei is not young, and he must live in Xiqin for a long time, and it is normal for him to marry a wife and have children. But I think Nie Guard's skills are extraordinary, it's good for the maid in my house to be your concubine, as for the wife, at least she must be a lady in Xijing, third brother, don't you say? ”
Qin Zhen looked at Nie Jin, who looked uncomfortable, and laughed even more, but did not answer her words.
Zhou Qingqing smiled and said: "I think the princess is right, Ah Jin, have you ever thought about marrying a wife?" ”
Nie Jin replied to her directly: "No." ”
Qin Luo still wanted to persuade him, but was interrupted by Qin Zhen: "Qin Luo, don't worry about Nie Jin, I see that you should think about when you will get married, and the imperial brother is about to be anxious for you." ”
Qin Luo said disappreliantly: "I want to get married, but none of the unmarried men in Western Qin have beaten me." ”
Nie Jin probably didn't want to continue this boring discussion, so he quietly changed the topic: "Lord Wang, the Northern ** Zhou army has passed Yunyang County, when will Western Qin go to fight?" ”
Qin Zhen was a little serious: "Three days later, I will personally lead the troops to the battle." ”
Qin Luo said: "And me, this time our Western Qin wants to kill the Northern ** Zhou without leaving a piece of armor, see if they dare to attack?" ”
Zhou Qingqing frowned: "Who are the generals of Northern Zhao and Southern Zhou who led the troops?" Got it? ”
Qin Luo said: "The Southern Zhou is Chen Yuliang, the general of Yipin, and the Northern Zhao is said to be Zhao Nianzhi, the king of Rui. ”
Zhou Qingqing: "King Rui? ”
Qin Zhen said: "The Northern Zhao royal family has always been mysterious, and I have only vaguely heard of this Rui King's name, but I don't know where it is sacred. ”
